The Worst Children's TV Shows Never Made

Barney:

A television series in which Barney Frank gave weekly advice to children on how to spend their allowances wisely. Frank was arrested several years later on charges on stealing several piggy banks from his child cast members.
 
The Monster is Hiding Under your Bed and He will Eat YOU!-Children's show telling children to be paranoid and terrified.
 

That seems no different than having kids read Diary of Ann Frank in the sixth grade. Might actually get them interested in the real history.

From my POV, Disney's Pocahontas turned into a series would be pretty bad.

I'm thinking also an animated version of Sgt Fury, as he actually was in the old comics, with Little Sure Shot and the rest of the platoon screaming "Japs!" and "Krauts!" in every panel.
 
Many years ago National Lampoon was an actual magazine and one issue featured Childrens' Letters To Hitler. It was appalling, offensive, and hysterically funny.

I suppose that could have been a Saturday morning radio program broadcast across the Reich and the world.

LOL I remember those. I used to subscribe to that magazine. Some of the funniest stuff ever in there.
 
Decades of Darkness Sesame Street-Set in Baltimore rather then New York and depicts the puppets owning slaves.

John Galt and Friends-Kiddie version of Atlas Shrugged where the virtues of selfishness are extoled strongly, along with the sex scenes.....

Little Black Sambo, I guess................

There was also a cancelled Brit Sitcom that was cancelled in the middle of the episode, it was called "Hiel Honey I'm home" it's about Hitler living next to jews, though it's not children, I'm just saying, with this hitler stuff...........
 
Germany wins WWII and sets up Nazi TV. Their more popular kiddie programs include: Kill the Jews, Kill the Negroes, Kill the Commies, and, naturally, Happy Hour with Herman Goering.

Boys & Girls Go Out To Play - The Series...
"This week, our pre-teen presenter, Belinda, will show you the best way to tell how much your drugs are cut by, how to remove forensic evidence, in case your "Night Games" go wrong, how to diss adults & get away with it, & finally how to dispose of annoying guest presenters, while looking suitably angelic...".

(Note: Boys & Girls Go Out To Play was a horror story, shown as the last episode in the Menace anthology series of stories, by the BBC in May 1973.
The story involves Belinda, a 11 year old girl receiving a music box for her birthday. However, said girl is pilfering her mother's supplies of "Diet Pills" at the time, with the result that she enters a deranged world of "Night Games", as a result of sleep deprivation caused by the pills, eventually ending up with her committing arson & then strangling a former friend, & dumping her body into a cement mixer...).
